The Everlasting Kings Park Festival is Perth's celebration of Western Australian wildflowers, held mostly in the Western Australian Botanic Garden inside Kings Park, 1.5km from the CBD. Expect displays drawn from more than 3,000 WA plant species, plus guided walks, talks, workshops and family activities. Entry to the park is free and many festival events cost nothing.
